Face Catching Frisbee

/in /by

It was time to take out the frisbee for some Ultimate Frisbee. We had 15 PAX split into two teams, with a non-glow-in-the-dark frisbee and blinding parking lot lights for some face catching Ultimate.

Welcome FNG Nacho!

Warm Up: SSH, Good Mornings, and Quad stretches. That’s all you need when you play Ultimate
The Workout: Every time the frisbee hits the ground, we rotated with 5 each of Monkey Humpers, Star Jumps, Merkins, LBCs. The team that scored got to pick the 10x penalty for the other team while they enjoy 5 ranging from Diamond Merkins to Homer-to-Marge. There were some amazing plays with cheating shoves and tricks. But always a great time.
Mary: 4 minutes of Mary called out by various PAX
Announcements: Check Slack for latest, Convergence this weekend.
Prayer: Closed out by Gump for Jameson’s Family, sadly another suicide in the community, strength and healing

Pax ran over to the parking lot where we bear crawl 5 lines, do a burpee, sprint back to the start, bear crawl 5 lines, do 2 burpees, sprint back to the start, etc… Told the Pax to keep adding a burpee till we reach 10 burpees. We started off great but had to call an audible when we all reached 8 burpees.

After a Messi 10 count, like only he knows how, we headed to the rock pile. After picking appropriate rocks we circled up for circuits of: curls for the girls IC x 10, tricep extensions IC x 10, overhead press IC x 10, rut rows IC x 10, LBC with rock IC x 10, American Hammers w/o rock IC x 10 and some other excercises I can’t remember.

Mosey for 1 lap around the tennis courts and circle up for Good Mornings, Sir Fazio Arm Circles
both ways, Overhead claps, Steve Earles, Daisy Pickers, Control Freak Merkins and 10
burpees OYO.

Thang 1
Mosey to the tennis courts and line up on the far left baseline. Tiny 11s, imported from nearby
Churham, call for a modification of the 11s we all know and love. The mode of transportation
from one baseline to the opposite is the infamous Bear Crawl. Following the requisite number
of Scorpion Dry Docks, the PAX Crawl Bear back to the starting point and complete the
requisite number of Monkey Humpers. Upon completion, BTTW until the SIX are all accounted
for. Red Ryder turns the reigns over to Rooney for…

Thang 2
Partner up, with each team grabbing a non-traveling rock. Move to the end of the parking lot
nearest Field 1. Time for Dora – 100 tricep extensions, 200 curls, 300 squats. While partner 1 is
completing said exercises, partner 2 runs to the field 2 scoring booth and back. Repeato until
complete. Return rocks and circle up for…

Mary
A pretty typical 3 minutes of Mary ensues, with Rooney calling some of the most excellent
exicon favorites such as American Hammers and Dying Cockroaches. All was going smoothly
until a very rotten odor, resembling that of dead cow that was left in 105 degree weather for at
least a week, began to emanate throughout the Mary circle. For the first time in known F3
history, fart penalty burpees were called.

Announcements
